However, when the user tries to launch it they get:This is down to the XenApp User Policy setting in place:
So, I went into that policy setting to enable the snap-in but its not listed. Is it possible to add it into GPO?

"Just use the GPO for Windows Settings, Registry in Preferences. Make sure you import the values NOT in the user context. Attached the XML file to simply import into the GPO.

I'm not sure what he means with "import the values NOT in the user context", though, as this targets HKCU; it could be the option "Run in logged-on user's security context (user policy option)" in the item's properties.
The XML below is slightly changed as compared to Thomas's version; it enables the option "Remove this item when it is no longer applied".
You can save it as Whatever.xml, copy the file in Explorer, and paste it into the GP Editor while "User Configuration\Preferences\Windows Settings\Registry" is selected.
Can't test it at the moment, but it should work.

So, where do I import this - as in, for what user? Do I import it into a GPO that affects my domain admin account and will then be able to add the snap-in for Citrix AppCenter to the list of allowed Snap-Ins for my XenApp users?

No; this creates the same registry entries that the "Allowed SnapIns" policy would create, but using a Registry Preference.
So create a new GPO "Allow Citrix Management" or whatever, and apply it to the users that you want to be able to use the XA console (obviously with a higher priority than the GPO that restricts the SnapIns).
Then import the XML into this GPO as described above.

Manage projects of all sizes how you want. Great for personal to-do lists, project milestones, team priorities and launch plans.

- View and edit from mobile/offline

Couldn't find it in the default MMC restriction settings, either, which I found a bit surprising, but the GUID below isn't in the MMC.admx, either.
Try to add another registry entry like the ones before, but this time with this GUID in the key path:{C96401CC-0E17-11D3-885B-00C04F72C717}
You can search in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\MMC\SnapIns if you're missing other Snap-Ins; there's a REG_SZ value NameString under each GUID you can check.
